Abstract
Abstract Under UV irradiation in the presence of iron(III) chloride or iron(III) triflate in pyridine, d-glucose, d-mannose, and d-galactose underwent a selective bond cleavage at the C1–C2 position, producing 4-O-formyl-d-arabinopyranose and 4-O-formyl-d-lyxopyranose. d-Fructose, under the same conditions, gave arabino-γ-lactone. The reaction was interpreted in terms of the photoinduced electron transfer within a chelate of iron ion with the carbohydrate molecule.
